SSU-SECURE Wi-Fi Access on iOS Devices

Important Note: In the latest update to IOS, Apple introduced a feature called "Private Address". This feature is turned on by default, and will prevent IOS devices from being able to connect to our Wi-Fi networks. If you have previously been able to connect to SSU-SECURE, and now cannot, despite following connection instructions below, you may be experiencing this issue. The resolution is to disable "Private Address" for the network you are trying to connect to. In the case of SSU-SECURE, enter Settings, go to Wi-Fi, tap the "i" icon next to SSU-SECURE, and turn off "Private Address". You should then be able to connect to the network. More info can be found here. If you have further difficulties, please contact the IT Help Desk for assistance.
